Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually several podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained thorough medical education with a focus on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. They are skilled to care for problems ranging from basic problems for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical education which furnish them the practical experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent a large number of conditions which the feet regularly experience.
